THERE HAS BEEN A CONTINOUS OIL LEAK INVOLVING MY 1998 PLYMOUTH BREEZE UPON INSPECTION FROM A LOCAL AUTO SHOP THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY HAVE SERVICED AND REPLACED THE HEAD GASKET ON SOME 1998 PLYMOUTH BREEZE FOR OIL LEAKS. THEY HAVE HAD TO RESERVICE THE SAME CARS WITHIN A SIX MONTH PERIOD FOR THE SAME HEAD GASKET LEAK. WHILE DRIVING AT A SPEED OF 50 MPH THE AC CLUTCH BROKE OFF FROM UNDER THE HOOD, CAUSING THE VEHICLES AC UNIT TO STOP RESPONDING. PRIOR TO THE AC CLUTCH BREAKING THERE WAS A LOUD BANGING NOISE IN WHICH WE PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE TO INVESTIGATE, WE COULD NOT SEE ANYTHING EVIDENT AT THE TIME, BUT AFTER TAKING IT TO GET SERVICED WE WERE INFORMED THAT THE NOISE AND REASON OUR AC WAS NOT WORKING WAS DUE TO THE AC CLUTCH BREAKING OFF. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO CORRECT THESE DEFECTS, BUT WE HAVE HAD SERVICE TECHNICIANS INVESTIGATE THE PROBLEM.*AK

I LEARNED RECENTLY THATENGINE HEAD GASKET HAS A MASSIVE LEAK AND OIL IS LEAKING INTO ALL COMPONENTS. I AM VERY FRUSTRATED AND WILL NOT BUY A CHRYSLER CAR AGAIN! I HAVE RECEIVED NO HELP AS FAR AS GETTING IN TOUCH WITH A SUPERVISOR AT CHRYSLER AND THEY HAVE OFFERED NO SOLUTION. THE WORST POINT ON ALL OF THIS IS THAT THEY KNOW ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND COULDN'T CARE LESS. WELL, MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WILL READ THIS AND HOPEFULLY WILL THINK TWICE BEFORE PURCHASING A CHRYSLER! *AK
THE STEERING COLUMN LOCKED UP WHICH CAUSED THE CONSUMER TO STRIKE A GUARD RAIL. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED HOME AND IS NOW IN HER GARAGE. A RECALL WAS RECEIVED TWO DAYS LATER FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. *JB

ABOUT A MONTH AGO WE BOUGHT A USED PLYMOUTH BREEZE. WE NOTICED A SMALL OIL LEAK AND HAD IT CHECKED. THE MECHANIC TOLD US IT WAS THE HEAD GASKET. *AK WE DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND FOUND OUT THAT CHRYSLER WAS AWARE THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE HEAD GASKET IN THIS MODEL BEFORE THE CARS EVEN CAME OFF THE ASSEMBLY LINE! INSTEAD OF FIXING THE PROBLEM, THEY PRODUCED AND SOLD THE CARS THAT WAY, AND LATER REDESIGNED THE HEAD GASKET AND PAID FOR SOME CUSTOMERS TO HAVE THEM REPLACED. WE TOOK OUR CAR TO A LOCAL DEALERSHIP, AND THEY CONFIRMED THAT IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM. THEY TOLD US THAT CHRYSLER HAD BEEN PAYING TO HAVE THE HEAD GASKET REPLACED. WE WERE GIVEN A PHONE NUMBER TO CONTACT CHRYSLER ABOUT OUR CAR. WE CALLED THE NUMBER, AND AFTER BEING GIVEN SEVERAL OTHER NUMBERS AND SENT IN CIRCLES FINALLY REACHED CHRYSLER'S "CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE" CENTER. NOT ONLY WERE WE WERE TOLD THAT THEY WEREN'T AWARE OF ANY SUCH PROBLEM AND COULDN'T HELP US, BUT THE PERSON WE SPOKE WITH WAS EXTREMELY RUDE. MY HUSBAND ASKED TO SPEAK TO A SUPERVISOR, AND WAS TOLD THAT "SUPERVISORS DON'T COME TO THE PHONE". WHEN HE ASKED HOW TO FILE A COMPLAINT, HE WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NO METHOD TO FILE A COMPLAINT. HE DIDN'T BELIEVE IT, SO HE HUNG UP AND CALLED BACK. HE SPOKE TO A DIFFERENT PERSON WHO TOLD HIM THE SAME THING. CHRYSLER DOESN'T EVEN HAVE A METHOD FOR CUSTOMERS TO FILE COMPLAINTS! WE SEARCHED ONLINE FOR OTHER NUMBERS TO CALL CHRYSLER, BUT THEY ALL GO TO THE SAME "CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE" CENTER.
I HAVE OWNED THE CAR FOR 2 1/2 YEARS NOW. 6 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING IT THE RIGHT INNER TIRE ROD SNAPPED. THIS WAS REPLACED BY A MECHANIC.

Official recalls
304V021000 · Power Train:automatic Transmission:lever And Linkage:floor Shift
Jan 13, 2004
ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES, THE FLOOR SHIFTER IGNITION-PARK INTERLOCK MAY FAIL AND ALLOW THE SHIFTER TO BE MOVED OUT OF THE PARK POSITION WITH THE KEY REMOVED. AN INOPERATIVE INTERLOCK MAY ALSO ALLOW THE KEY TO BE REMOVED WHEN THE SHIFTER HAS NOT BEEN PLACED IN THE PARK POSITION.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: EITHER CIRCUMSTANCE MAY RESULT IN THE VEHICLE ROLLING AWAY WITHOUT WARNING.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSTALL A NEW LOAD-LIMITING PUSH ROD INTO THE FLOOR SHIFTER LEVER OF THE AFFECTED VEHICLES. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN ON JUNE 14, 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT DAIMLERCHRYSLER AT 1-800-853-1403.
99V244000 · Service Brakes, Hydraulic:foundation Components:hoses, Lines/piping, And Fittings
Sep 15, 1999
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PASSENGER VEHICLES. THE RIGHT REAR BRAKE TUBE CAN CONTACT THE EXHAUST SYSTEM CLAMP AND WEAR A HOLE IN IT.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: DAIMLERCHRYSLER RECALL NO. 843. IF THIS HAPPENS, THE TUBE COULD LEAK, REDUCING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF ONE-HALF OF THE DIAGONALLY SPLIT BRAKING SYSTEM, AND RESULTING IN LONGER STOPPING DISTANCES.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE BRAKE TUBES FOR VISIBLE EVIDENCE OF CONTACT WITH THE EXHAUST SYSTEM CLAMP. IF THE TUBE SHOWS EVIDENCE OF CONTACT, IT WILL BE REPLACED. IF NO EVIDENCE OF CONTACT EXISTS, THE TUBE WILL BE FASTENED WITH A CLIP.
98V183000 · Power Train:automatic Transmission:park/neutral Start Interlock Switch
Aug 6, 1998
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PASSENGER VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS. THE ADJUSTMENT OF THE CABLE CONNECTING THE CONSOLE SHIFTER MECHANISM TO THE IGNITION KEY CAN CAUSE A TRAPPED KEY CONDITION WHICH CAN RESULT IN A LOW FORCE REQUIRED TO DEPRESS THE SHIFT BUTTON. A COMBINATION OF APPLYING A MIS-ADJUSTED RELEASE BUTTON WITH A LOW FORCE ATTEMPT TO SHIFT OUT OF PARK WITH THE KEY IN THE LOCKED POSITION, CAN BREAK THE CONNECTING PIN IN THE SHIFTER.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF THIS HAPPENS, THE "IGNITION-PARK" INTERLOCK SYSTEM WILL BE NONFUNCTIONAL.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT FOR PROPER OPERATION OF THE SYSTEM. ANY VEHICLES THAT ARE NOT FUNCTIONAL AFTER THE INSPECTION WILL HAVE THE SHIFT MECHANISM AND CABLE REPLACED WITH A "SELF-ADJUSTING" DESIGN.
